I was told that most girls go for 2wks, but some go for 4. How many wks did your girls go for? Is it hard to get 4wks? I was told that it's limited.

Also, who makes up the camp? Are there girls there from many states or is mostly NH?

Did u like the environment? Was it pleasant and appealing? Pretty?

Do you think that your girls learned new things (sports, sailing etc.) from going to this camp?

Thank you so much for your reply. And sorry for all the questions.

Fwiw, my daughter is currently in 3rd grade.
My girls went for 4 weeks initially, then later for two. Same with my sons. It gets a bit costly and, yes, Huckins tries to be more inclusive by limiting the number of "monthers," although there remain some.

There are a lot of NH and MA girls, but many states represented. We're from Pennsylvania, and there's a decent alumni group down here.\

They had a blast, and definitely learned new things. Waterfront is a big part of the camp experience there. They also have an equestrian program.

It's a lovely location on Broad Bay. We made stop in February to check it out while frozen. The web site is pretty good -- check it out.
